“However, in the current climate, charities like us face huge fundraising challenges, so to be helped in this way is just amazing – the money that the England players are donating will be our lifeblood.

“The entire country was so proud of Gareth and the boys at the recent World Cup, and rightly so, but we should all be equally as proud of the hugely important work that the squad do off the pitch.”

England’s incredible run - including three knockout games before the third and fourth place playoff - meant even more money was earned for good causes.

Senior players led by skipper Kane are understood to have collectively chosen the beneficiaries.

This week is the first time they have been back together since the Russia campaign.

French World Cup winner Kylian Mbappe announced his fee will go to charity - but the England 23-man squad’s fees dwarf that of the Paris St German striker.

Three Lions players have been donating their fees distributed via the England Football Foundation (EFF) since 2007 and gave now raised £5.5m for charities.

The CEOs of the four remaining charities are expected to sign off the donations in coming weeks.
